4 AM furniture, moving!

The day was fine until 4 AM when people were moving into the room above us. It sounded like they were moving furniture for 15 minutes. Finally I called the front desk and the gentleman said he would check into it. No change for another 15 minutes. I called again and he said a family of four with a dog I checked in. He informed me that the walls and ceilings are not very thick, so sound reverberates? I do understand that; however, I don’t know why the noise was not addressed. I understand there is some noise when getting settled in a room. But considering the amount of noise they were making, it should have been looked into. Sound them like things are being thrown across the room for a half an hour!

The stay was ok. The breakfast service attendant did a great job despite some the families and individuals taking over the entire bar with mutiple plates and members without regard to others. The rooms seemed clean but had an odor hard to identify everytime you walked in.

We stayed in rm 116. It was noisy from the outside traffic, guests in the hallway and guests above us. The carpet was wet in places near the ac & desk. The desk chair was dirty. It looked like someone spilled a liquid but we weren’t sure what it was. The beds were fine.

Parking is a little funky because it's shared with a neighboring hotel. Could use some updating, but overall a nice stay for the price.
